This research is a descriptive study that aims to describe the level of student characters in terms of their independence and critical thinking ability in polyhedron topic through the Discovery Learning model. The subjects of the study were 6 students of Year 8 of MTsN 1 Banda Aceh who was selected based on their high ability, moderate ability, and low ability. Data collection techniques in this study were student character observation and interviews. Data is analyzed by reducing data, presenting data and drawing conclusions. The results showed that the attainment of the level of independent character and critical thinking increased during mathematics learning.
